From what I know my Henry H. was born 1808. and died Oct. 1887. It is said he was born in West Freedom, Clarion Co. If you look at a map, Butler, southern Venango, Souther Clarion and parts of Armstrong county run together pretty good.

Surnames: Barr Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/oVC.2ACIB/1377 Message Board Post: Robert BARR OBITUARY--The death of such a man as the honorable Robert BARR, whose decease was recently announced, affords an occasion for publicly offering a testimonial to sterling worth, uprightness and excellence, without an indulgence in the fulsome panegyric and hyperbolical excess which pariality or enthusiasm would set forth. Society owes to itself the duty of perpetuating by placing upon the tablet of memory the names and virtues of its members, who may be lost to it by death, --with the view of exciting the emulation and increasing the veneration of its youthful and growing classes, and this duty is now assumed by those who had frequent opportunities of habits of intimacy with its lamented subject. The character of the late Robert BARR, was one of rare occurrence, --to sterling bravery he united a uniform candor, urbanity and invincible adherence to principle, courtesy of demeanor, and guided in all things by dispassionate reason, and in all his relations with society, rectitud! e and principle were manifest to those who were among the circle of his acquaintance. By his death our city has been deprived of a useful, an exemplary citizen; the county of a man whose tried services and whose sterling abilities were known and appreciated,--and his acquaintances of a sincere and firm friend. In these relations his loss will be long felt and deeply deplored. The numerous and respectable assemblage, together with the societies of which he was a member, which on the occasion of his funeral clustered around his remains to pay their last tribute of respect to him,--with the thunder of the artillery, showed a nation mourned his loss; and fully testified his worth as a man and as a public functionary of high responsibility. Suffice it to say, he has left a remembrance in the minds of his friends more durable and more lasting than "Storied Urn or Monumental Bust,"--and that his worth and services will be remembered, so long as the name of Texas appears as a nation! , of the pages of her history. 10/18/1839

Hello Barr Researchers, Yesterday I found in the 1860's census for Henrico Co., VA a John Barr, age 48, m, Miner, married to Rebecca (?), age 32, f. It states that John was born in Scotland. Their children are listed as: William, age 14, m; Matthew, age 11, m; James, age 7, m; Alpheus, age 1, m; It also has a Nancy Conway age 41, F, domestic, listed as living with them. Does anyone know of this Barr family? William, who also goes by the name of Jesse is my husband's great-great grandfather. I have also found him as William Jesse Barr, Jesse William Barr. It seems that he changed his name around at times. Would love to connect with other Barr's in this family line.

This is in response to Merle. Caleb Barr son of William Barr is in my husband's line. I believe Caleb's brother Silas was killed in the Revolutionary War and Caleb names his son Silas. There are other Silas and Calebs in this line. However, I don't know how much of the info I have can be validated. Let me know what info you need.
